Neat find. Weren't the lids for those silver or something? I know it sounds stupid, but, I dug a cap like that one from the woods of camp logan. 1920s I believe. No corrosion at all on it after all those years.....I will look for the pic of the cap and post it.....


Maybe it is lead. It came out shiny. Not at all like typical lead. Maybe chrome or nickel plated and lead inside??

Don't think they were silver, I think they are lead.

If I'm going to apply something to the inside of my mouth everyday, I want it to be fully encased in delicious and toxic lead. LOL

Neat old find! I find a lot of those lead type tubes here and many of the top portions. That is my brand of toothpaste by the way. HH, Mike

I am not sure who invented the teeth brush.....it is a known fact that the 'tooth'brush was invented in Arkansas......

Legal disclaimer: No Arkansasians were injured in the making of this post....yet.

Don't forget those old silver fillings in your teeth - there is some mercury in them!
